    In 1940, while five-year-old Anna MacRae's father, a soldier, is stationed in Europe, her mother dies. Anna's twin sisters are just babies, and the three siblings are sent to the English countryside until the war ends, as were many British children. But the twins have a decidedly malicious side, and as they grow, they often make Anna the target of their mean-spirited attacks. Years pass, and Anna herself becomes the mother of twins. Will history repeat itself? Hamilton (A Parallel Life, 2010; The Reading Room, 2009) has created another honest look at family dynamics, in particular that unique relationship that exists between sisters.
